Making of Dirty and Zooropa (song)

[theFly51]

Does anyone know what rehearsal or when it took place that these two songs were discovered?

I know that the beginning of Zooropa was during a sound check with Larry messing around on bass but where and is there any known recording?

I read somewhere also that Dirty Day started with Adam messing around and mad the riff for the song.

Any idea guys?

 

[MooMoo!]

I'd also be interested to know more about the whole Zooropa recording, I think thats the one I know least about.

Flanagan's "U2 at the End of the World" goes into quite a bit of detail about the making of the album. Combined with the passages in BP Fallon's "Faraway So Close!" -- and whatever we can find in U2 By U2 -- and we have a pretty good document of the making of Zooropa, probably a clearer insight than any other album.

I came across a show listing on u2gigs with a soundcheck listed that sounded like this... I forget what show... but I know it was in Outside Broadcast, I believe somewhere in the south.

This one? U2 Kansas City, 1992-10-18, Arrowhead Stadium, ZOO TV Tour - U2 on tour

The soundcheck is available on U2start: U2 start.com | Bootlegs | 1992-10-18 - Kansas City, Missouri - Arrowhead Stadium

Indeed. The ZooTV period is rather heavily documented. Search out those 2 books and you'll have more htan you know what to do with! Some of the photos in the BP Fallon book are priceless e.g. Bono in a McDonald's drive through.
